Implemented Alphabetical Sorting of Resources

[FredC]

This is really needed as our database will include thousands of "Reviews" Where members will want to compare one Product with Other Similar Products. Finding these Specific reviews can be difficult without using the search feature.. The ability to set this as default in the ACP would be a sweet bonus..

I actually recently had to disable the resource manager on my site because it is to complicated for my members in general.. (not to say its not intuitive because it is) Most my members are 50 plus. But the ultimate reason we have scrapped the entire project was because even if we were able to populate our reviews (Dog Food Brands) Thousands of them.. there was no logical sorting method for our application.

For anyone that wants this now, I posted a very easy template edit for Alphabetical Resource Sorting here: http://xenforo.com/community/threads/rm-resource-sorting.48311/#post-518671

That works great Bobster65. Might be a good idea to have it switch from asc to desc once clicked.

I have made a litle guide to have a work around for: https://xenforo.com/community/resources/rm-sort-items-alphabetical-in-resource-manager.3325/

Please also vote the first post here in this thread to make this a core funktion! Thanks.

sorting the "Resources" alphabetically via the "Filters Dropdown" would be great !

It would definitely help the user to find certain "Resources".

You can also use a Add-on from *******: RMalphabeticalypagination - i think that will do what you miss.
